    Forfeit question

    In my opinion, this is ridiculous. If I was ref, I would call that as unsportsmanlike conduct. If not, you make one move out of place, I would call concession. Pool is a gentleman's sport at its base. That extranneous activity is simply a shark.

    Posted in Rules, but not much activity there. Touching balls... If you are touching the blue, and colors are "on", can you still elect another color and score for pocketing it? Thanks

    BCA Rules 9 Ball

    The first scenario is famous. Ask Johnny Archer. Can't remember the event, but he laid his stick down and let go. Should have seen his face. BAM. That is a foul...using an aiming device. Also a foul when the ball hits it, but foul before that, as soon as the player leaves his stick on the...

    Help with Snooker Rule Please

    Touching balls.... If you are touching a colored "ball on", say the blue, can you elect a different color and score on potting that color? Or, are you forced just to shoot away from the color(blue), because you have already "touched" it? Thanks

    New Here. Thinking about refelting my table myself

    Quite easy to do, but takes some practice.The second time you do it will be perfect...the first you may have some glitches. Key: Very carefully take off old rubber. It is easy to pull some of the wood with the rubber. This you don't want. Measure how high the old rubber is off the bed. Check...

    Very odd cue ball strike!!

    I think the most famously contorted leg being sat on for a masse shot is none other than Jimmy White's. He made a beautiful masse to touch the brown from handcuffs behind the blue. I am sure it could be found by searching Jimmy White masse on YouTube.

    The amazing thing about him not paying is that he says he has a family. Does he not remember what went on in the hotel room? What happens in Vegas is not gonna stay in Vegas much longer!!!

    Joey Korsiak won't honor $100 owed

    To the fellow who thinks setting up a website over a c note is crazy...dude..it took 4 whole minutes to set up the site, then copy and paste from my INBOX. Learn how to operate your computer, instead of spending all your time pampering your lovely dog.

    Joey Korsiak won't honor $100 owed

    Thanks for all the information. Joey was crying and sobbing, down on his luck in Vegas, but playing in the Pro Event. He had run out of money. Yes, I lent him the money, and yes, I did not really know him. Where I come from a man backs his word. But, after lying to my face, and now...

    Where's my cue?

    Each piece of wood must be turned, approximately every 3 weeks. Each cue gets turned 6-10 times. Do the math. A reputable cue maker will have a large number of pieces of wood...in progress.

    Rules for Custom pool Room, ur opinion?

    In my opinion, you need to drastically change your focus. This is the most ridiculous situation I have witnessed in many years. I agree with another poster. If I saw that rule sheet, I would probably make a few snide remarks...then hit the door and go find a place based in reality. You do by...
